Trap

Arelith changes

Kills done by traps don't give any experiences on Arelith.

Traps for quarters use a different mechanic, and they may not be directly set, spotted, flagged or removed.

Traps will generate in pre-defined locations throughout the modules once per reset.

The trap of a chest will not disappear if it is triggered, rendering the chest impossible to be opened for as long as the trap is not disabled or recovered. Doors are exempt from this mechanic.

Setting traps

It is not permitted to leave traps around unattended. There does need to be a roleplay reason to set a trap (and being chaotic evil isn't a RP reason).

Despite rumors, there's no rule against trap stacking, or leaving traps in a quarter you own. It's perfectly acceptable.

Character and other members of their party can't set off a trap that they lay down (unless the trapper relogs). Everyone can still be affected by the AoE once the trap is triggered (if it targets all).

Other characters outside of the trap layer's party will set off the trap regardless if they are set to "Like"/friendly or "Dislike"/hostile.

Creating traps

Create Trap Kit is available as the ninth option from Crafting in radial menu. Each type of trap is listed in this menu, with the corresponding component.

In order to make a trap:

• Character needs to have required points in skill Craft Trap.
• Components needs to be located in characters' inventory.

Bear in mind that Epic traps cannot be crafted and the only way to acquire them is through the Recovery option of the Disable Trap skill.
